Coloured bath resurfacing near Guilsfield

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many areas need work

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

For a price in Guilsfield, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Guilsfield

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We regularly repair whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and coloured shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Landlord and trade work in Guilsfield

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Common questions in Guilsfield

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Guilsfield?

Prices start from £350. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Can you do the toilet too?

Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll tell you what will last.

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. We leave everything to cure, normally until the next day.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Ask for a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Repairing versus replacing in Guilsfield

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
